Euro Paper Talk: Tuchel adds third Bundesliga defender to Chelsea wish list; Liverpool have Wijnaldum deadline Thomas Tuchel has added a new name to a three-man shortlist to strengthen Chelsea’s defence, while a deadline has been set for Georginio Wijnaldum’s future at Liverpool becoming clear – all according to Wednesday’s Euro transfer gossip. TUCHEL HAS THREE-MAN DEFENSIVE SHORTLIST Thomas Tuchel has identified three potential defensive targets for Chelsea from the Bundesliga, according to SportBild. Tuchel is already turning his attention to the summer transfer window, which will be his first real opportunity to re-shape his new Chelsea squad. The Blues spent heavily on attacking reinforcements last summer. While they could target one more striker for next season, they will likely be focusing mainly on their backline. Thiago Silva has impressed since his free transfer from PSG. But Chelsea will need a longer-term solution at some point. With that in mind, German tactician Tuchel is looking towards his home country for reinforcements. According to Bild, Tuchel has drawn up a wish-list of three names. He will pursue one of Dayot Upamecano, David Alaba or Niklas Sule. Chelsea’s interest in Upamecano is no secret. Bayern Munich are the favourites to sign the RB Leipzig starlet, but have confirmed they are battling the Blues and Liverpool. Alaba’s place on their wish-list has also been well documented. The Austrian is out of contract at the end of the season and will be leaving Bayern. Therefore, many clubs across Europe want to sign him. Real Madrid are particularly keen, but Alaba could still end up in the Premier League. Sule a new name on shortlist His Bayern teammate Sule, though, is a new target for Chelsea. The 25-year-old featured little last season, but has already played in 12 Bundesliga matches and four in the Champions League this time around. The German international is only under contract until 2022. So, unless Bayern can convince him to stay, he might be available for a discount. That could be appealing to Chelsea, who are not shy of spending but have also shown they can make shrewd moves like the addition of Silva. What’s more, Spox claim that Sule can move on if Bayern decide to offer a new contract to Jerome Boateng instead.

Thomas Tuchel has added a new name to a three-man shortlist to strengthen Chelsea’s defence, while a deadline has been set for Georginio Wijnaldum’s future at Liverpool becoming clear – all according to Wednesday’s Euro transfer gossip.

TUCHEL HAS THREE-MAN DEFENSIVE SHORTLIST

Thomas Tuchel has identified three potential defensive targets for Chelsea from the Bundesliga, according to SportBild.

Tuchel is already turning his attention to the summer transfer window, which will be his first real opportunity to re-shape his new Chelsea squad.

The Blues spent heavily on attacking reinforcements last summer. While they could target one more striker for next season, they will likely be focusing mainly on their backline.

Thiago Silva has impressed since his free transfer from PSG. But Chelsea will need a longer-term solution at some point.

With that in mind, German tactician Tuchel is looking towards his home country for reinforcements.

According to Bild, Tuchel has drawn up a wish-list of three names. He will pursue one of Dayot Upamecano, David Alaba or Niklas Sule.

Chelsea’s interest in Upamecano is no secret. Bayern Munich are the favourites to sign the RB Leipzig starlet, but have confirmed they are battling the Blues and Liverpool.

Alaba’s place on their wish-list has also been well documented. The Austrian is out of contract at the end of the season and will be leaving Bayern.

Therefore, many clubs across Europe want to sign him. Real Madrid are particularly keen, but Alaba could still end up in the Premier League.

Sule a new name on shortlist

His Bayern teammate Sule, though, is a new target for Chelsea.

The 25-year-old featured little last season, but has already played in 12 Bundesliga matches and four in the Champions League this time around.

The German international is only under contract until 2022. So, unless Bayern can convince him to stay, he might be available for a discount.

That could be appealing to Chelsea, who are not shy of spending but have also shown they can make shrewd moves like the addition of Silva.

What’s more, Spox claim that Sule can move on if Bayern decide to offer a new contract to Jerome Boateng instead.
